Troy and his recycled SUP

" Hi Grant, Here are a few pics of a 10'8" SUP I just laminated. The deck and bottom are made of recycled cedar fence boards from one of my landscape client's old fence. I was building them a new one of corrugated steel and bamboo, and while working on that, kept eyeballing the old boards. The owner asked us to take them away, so off they went to await their metamorphosis. Combined with Paulownia (rails, nose and tail blocks) and a bit of mahogany and redwood, it looks sweet. "









Troy seems to always be building another SUP , in fact he builds more than anyone I know of. So if you need some pointers contact him : lefthandman@mac.com

Hollow Wooden SUP by Troy Nixion in Texas



 " Hi Grant, thought you and some of your mates would like to see my new SUP. It's made of Pauwlownia, Redwood and Cedar. All epoxy. 10'6" x 29" x 4".  Took it to a local river the other day,  paddled a couple of miles and it worked great.  Also, check out the paddle. Spanish cedar,  Red Cedar, Mahogany and Redwood.

I've been checking on flights down to Brisbane for your wooden board day, and will keep watching. Haven't ever been to your fine country, so the time might be right...  if I find the right price. "
